Think about what you crave on a regular basis. Is it chocolate after every meal? Do you always hanker for a packet of crisps or a giant bowl of pasta? We crave food for many reasons, here’s the science to explain (and what you can do to curb the hankering!)

Eating lots of processed foods, with their empty calories and refined carbohydrates, puts the human body in an acidic state which can led to sugar and carb cravings.

Lots of plant-based green foods, clean organic protein and complex carbs like quinoa, barley or brown rice. SUPER ELIXIR Alkalising Formula is your all-in-one multivitamin from organic wholefood ingredients. Just two teaspoons in 300ml water everyday and you’ll be on your way.

A lack of quality protein throughout the day can cause spikes and dips in your blood sugar creating intense cravings for sugary, salty and fatty foods.

Include clean organic protein at every meal such as line caught fish, lentils, nuts and seeds. Our all-plant SUPER ELIXIR Nourishing Protein contains all 9 essential amino acids, fibre to keep you feeling full for longer and digestive enzymes to support a healthy metabolism. Add it to a smoothie, or shake with almond milk on-the-go.

Studies have found that the part of your brain that handles stress and the hunger hormone leptin both activate when people get a bad case of the munchies.

Take 5-10 deep breathes per day and exhale out all the stale old air in your lungs to help oxygenate your blood and put that bounce back into your step.
